Tóm tắt

The usage of modern information technologies will be successful only if information system development is aligned with the business system development strategy. Such an approach is usually regarded as the strategic planning of information systems (SPIS). A unified methodology for SPIS does not exist up to the present time, although several methods, techniques and templates might be inventively integrated to develop a new IS for each particular business system. This paper present how this integration could be performed to obtain a consistent methodology named SPIS. Such a methodology has been developed by the authors and applied to six large-scale projects in very different business environments. In this way a theoretical approach was confirmed and extended by new experiences, which are presented in this article.
